    Randy48......

    Randy48~~ Now that is pretty weak.. We wern't creating enough DP's so you decided to go to a team where you would be their 'Saviour'. I guess that tells us all exactly what kind of person you are.. Talk about no loyalty....


    Eveyone Else~~ We don't need him.. All we need to do in all actuality is get all the sys admins on sysopt.. to go ahead and get all their network up and crunching.. we can put down both TA and DPC.

    Yeah... YOu're right...

    We should all quit college, sell our cars and houses, and buy hundreds and hundreds of AMD Athlon Computers so that the team can be number one...

    I allready sold my car im renting a room at my house I raided my kids college fund and I can't say here what im doing with my wife. Now im building up to help kick TAs *****. Hundreds and hundreds of Athlons is exactaly what im firing up. Since our leader packed up an ran for the greener side if the field, who is to be crowned the new leader.

    I kinda felt something like this was coming and I do remember you saying something along those lines Phenious. Randy had a whole lot of cycles for Sysopt but you have to remember Sysopt were doing very well in RC5 long before Randy joined up so dont lose heart because he needs to see if the grass is greener on the other side, just keep your heads down and remember that the main reason I did distributed computing was for the community here at the forum and I just know Sysopt will keep going strong with or without Randy so chins up. Good luck Randy at TA and I wish you the best of luck for the future.

    All are welcome to the UD team as we were quite small and didnt produce alot for quite some time untill we activily asked the outside sysopt people for help so you know we arnt going anywhere . Much luck to the EPPc team, now go kick TAs *****! We are also climbing our lader to do just that, kick TAs ***** in the cancer project, Lets go SYSOPT! We tweak our systems to the max here, now lets let these babies GO!

    Randy....if your afraid of losing the #1 spot on SO just say something and I'll have Jig leave a couple of his machines off

    I can't believe that you would leave our team just to beat the DPCs. Well I'm sure that you have your reasons....Best of luck!

    Randy,

    I too am pretty disappointed with your move. The fight that we have had with TA and DPC with you on our side has been a good one. Without you, well....I guess that we are a solid 3rd place team. Good luck to you, and I hope that you enjoy the fast road to the top.

    For a guy that actively added the Stars&Stripes to his avatar after Sept 11th, this switching-of-sides is pretty out of character

    Enjoy your escapade for a while, Randy, but don't lose track of your senses for too long.

    emotions

    I can only wonder about such a move. Words that come into mind regarding this are "surprising," "disappointing," "frustrating," and "amazement." But if it's true (and say I'm in denial, but I'm not entirely convinced), the most applicable way of describing this is that it's simply pathetic.

    Randy, I've noticed from day 1 that you are someone driven by your emotions. I always thought it was great to have your emotional furvor on board (and there are others such as phenius and recently viztech who are much the same way)... our intellect can only go so far in motivation. Emotions drive us the rest of the way, and give us a welcome companion along the journey.

    It's no secret I wanted the TA/SO thing to happen... I have since before TA started up any team whatsoever. It's actually because of AnandTech that I started reviewing hardware and editing (first for Computer Heaven and then later with SysOpt).

    But to do this? WOW

    Talk about betrayal......

    I think I'm still in shock.. This is the worst thing that could possibly have happened. But, as was said before, where there is a will, there is a way. It may take a little longer, but we will claw our way to the top.
